investigators in a few moments. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. speaking with the ntsb chairman coming up within the next 10 or 15 minutes. with regards to the auto throttle, that is something ntsb investigators headquarter at south san francisco hotel are taking into consideration as they try to figure out what caused asiana flight 214 to crash late saturday morning. part of the focus on whether or not that auto throttle mechanism was working properly on final approach to sfo. the two pilots at the control of the boeing 777 told investigators they thought the auto throttle was armed and maintaining steady 137 knots minimum speed necessary for landing. why didn't they notice this was not the case, they were dangerously slow and low? because they might have been distracted by another pressing issue. in that final approach, the pilots realized that they were
5:01 am
offcenter from the runway, trying to correct the problem. it wasn't until they were 200 feet out from touchdown that they realized they were going too slow and altitude was too low. they did throttle up in an attempt to boabort the landing t it was too late. >> one of very critical things that needs to be monitored on approach to landing is speed. so we need to understand what was going on in the cockpit and also with the aircraft. >> reporter: the pilot at the controls of the 777 at the time has several thousand hours flying experience in other jumbo jets, just not the 777. this was his first time trying to land a 777 at sfo and his co-pilot, who was training him at the time, that was his first time as instructor. the ntsb says the pilots were not drug tested after the crash. the issue is that under current law, drug and alcohol testing is
5:02 am
required for american pilots, not foreign pilots. reporting live here south san francisco, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> the crash over the asiana jetliner has created controversy over different levels of safety on board the plane. preliminary reports from victims suggest business class passengers had full shoulder harnesses while those in coach only had a lap belt to restrain them. this raises one very big question for burlingame attorney frank petri. >> the injuries that occurred in one area of the aircraft where you had the dual restraint system with those who didn't and you see where there were dramatic differences in nature and type of injury. >> biomechanics experts say extra extra restraints there is more room to be thrown about.

5:05 am
forgotten raped most of the victims here in sunnyvale and also women in san jose and san francisco. hubbart was known as the pillowcase rapist because he'd put a pillowcase over his victims' head. prior to go on his raping spree here in sunnyvale, people didn't realize he raped 25 other women in the los angeles area. that was in the early to mid-70s. he was arrested and locked up only to be released in 1990, and that's when he struck again. this time he attacked a woman at monroe middle school in san jose. since then he spent most of his time in state hospitals. his fate is set to change after a santa clara county judge granted him conditional release in may which mean his could be a free man sometime this year. that horrifies people here in sunnyvale especially who will never forget him. >> i remember when he got caught and that was a big deal.
5:06 am
that was a real big deal here. i'm flabbergasted. i knew it was a lot of women but i didn't know it was 15. >> he's done terrible things and i understand that nobody would want the guy living next door. that being said, he has legal right to ask for release once he's completed his in patient treatment and he's going to be heavily supervised, more heavily supervised than any inmate coming out of state prison or county jail. >> for those who can't stomach the thought of the now-62-year-old hubbart getting another shot at freedom, there is hope. after just yesterday a prosecutor with the l.a. county d.a.'s office drove to san jose to file paperwork to block his release. if denied hubbart would be released in l.a. county where he's from, he would be heavily monitored. he'd have to abide by a curfew, also undergo treatment for his mental issues. still very lit comfort for people who just can't forget
